Kendo11 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Why has the buyer not crowned himself in glory? That? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I was thinking more non driver with a driveline issue. Its unusual for a running car to be parked up for that length of time unless it has something seriously amiss with it as it would have fetched close to £10k back in 2003 as a runner which is equivalent to £15k today. Not many people would park up a perfectly good £15k car that at that time wasn't even bottom price Supra so wasn't the appreciating asset it is today. Could have been a health issue? and then kept for sentimental value and the thought that "one day i'll get it back on the road"? I agree though that it's a long time.....

Scooter Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Why has the buyer not crowned himself in glory? I think because of the (likely) fib to a seller who wanted it to go to an enthusiast. But hey that's business and a seller can't really dictate where it goes, or he could but at the end of the day the right price (in the sellers head) will get the deal done, as it must have done.

Guest Rsb Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 How much was it up for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 How much was it up for? £15k, but he received a significantly higher offer (so not mega cheap?), then the ad was gone, so not sure what it went for.........21 years the guy had had it though and it was on 88K miles but with some paint fade (probably just needed a really good detail) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
